Not sure what you're asking... Active Directory is a form of LDAP.  Are you saying you want to create an administrator in Active Directory?  If so, create the user account and add them to the Domain Admins group.  To create an Enterprise-Wide administrator (for when you have multiple domains in a forest) add them to the Enterprise Admins group.  The server itself doesn't use a local accounts database like non-DCs would.
